141. The Beef Dilemma
Wow huge problem for me, especially since I like to cook, but the beef here is truly, truly inedible! First there is only a few cuts of meat like Tafelspitz which is like brisket in the US they have no beef bones, so forget BBQ beef ribs, then maybe rinderfilet which is super expensive and tasteless or some lower grade that you can ONLY make soup out of and must cook for hours otherwise it’s like chewing leather, trust me! Sometimes to add more fun, the Tafelspitz can be $14/Euros per Kilo which now you have to convert to make any sense for yourself and that is really expensive, so here’s a TIP: find a Metro which is kinda like a Costco in the States and get the big package of Argentinian entrecote steaks, it will be around 30/Euros but you will be able to slice into 10 steaks, it comes out to $3/Euro per steak and that’s even cheaper than Tafelspitz! Plus it’s cheaper than the US steaks there and it will be delicious..trust me I had to learn the hard way…
